For some the drive to help others can push them to extraordinary lengths. Kiwi aid worker Tristan Clement is such a person. How else could you explain his desire to work in some of the world’s poorest countries, facing battles of life and death… including his own.

His commitment to this selfless existence was severely tested when his vehicle was ambushed by bandits and his colleagues were shot.

Tristan speaks to Mike McRoberts about what happened next.

Yesterday, 10/22,2010, I viewed a video about a NZ man that had swine flu, pneumonia, and leukimia, who was in a coma and was about to have his life support pulled until the family insisted that the patient be treated with high dose vitimin C. Doctors refused and family had attorney intervene and doctors relented and did treat the man with the high dose of vitimen C and the man miraculosly returned to perfect health. I copied the website and tried to retrieve the video today (10/13/2010) but it was no longer available. Can you make the video available again?

We have a family member suffering with similar symptoms and we wouldlike to notify his doctors.

Thank you Robert Barrie
